The fuel pressure sensor let's the computer know how to compensate for different conditions. You usually do not see something like that unless it's direct fuel injection, which I think our 3.5l is.
The sensor shorts out internally taking out computer out reference signals and communication.
Your not going to really find a picture of where it goes, just look at the picture of what the sensor looks like, then reread my post above, you will not really see it until you remove the throttle body, use a good flashlight. You may be able to find the connector to try to unplug and plug it back in without swinging the throttle body out of the way, but would be a lot better to remove the 4 bolts from the throttle body and swing it out of the way (and replace it while you are at it) If not please just call a mechanic. You will need a wrench (forget the size) and you will need to cut the wrench down to about 4 to 6 inches long.

Need to merge these two threads.
Basically the fuel pressure sensor shorts out and fouls up the ecu. If your cooling fans run constantly and won't crank, replace the fuel pressure sensor. All info is on this thread or

I know it's hard to see lol.
Almost directly under the throttle body about 6 to 8 inches under throttle body, probably can only see when throttle body removed.. It screws in facing to the front of the car. The wires coming from 9ther side of the sensor face to the rear of the car, look for the wires. It screws Into an aluminum fuel housing (almost looks like a thermostat housing). With throttle body removed and a headlight on your forehead there is one good angle looking down where the throttle body was, you can see it. Once you see the sensor (look up a picture online so you know what to wire end looks like) use a shorty wrench to looses then unscrew by hand, blindly as you reach in.

Ok thanks I will try again I had mechanic looking at it and they said I was wrong about the sensor but I guess they do anything to make an extra buck

If you want to diagnose it, find the cam sensor on the valve cover and check for 5 volts on the terminal I spoke about in diagnosing, either on this thread or the one on this forum I posted about an 08 gs350 fuel pressure sensor.
I searched google images 2007 gs350 fuel pressure sensor and got a few different sensors. The one from ebay (I would NOT buy the eBay one) that shows a metal threaded end, and a square black plastic "box" with a 6" wire (harness) coming out of the back. The metal threaded end screws into the back of the high pressure fuel housing, the treads are facing forward but obviously hidden in the housing. The size is around 1" but metric equivalent. The small black box on the back of the sensor, and the wire pigtail both face the back of the car.
